Revealed: A glimpse inside one of the most famous wardrobes in the world - as Posh and Becks sell off countless designer items for charity

Their love of fashion has never been in doubt - and throughout the years, Victoria and David Beckham have managed to outdo themselves in the sartorial stakes.

And now, determined to raise funds for the survivors of the devastating Typhoon Haiyan, the Beckhams have raided their closets to donate some of their best-known designer outfits to support the British Red Cross Shop Drop for the Philippines.

From the couple's infamous matching Dickensian outfits worn at the Venice Film Festival in 2006 - to David's baseball caps and 100 pairs of Victoria's heels, boxes of the Beckham's belongings are being donated.

Also up for sale are suits designed by the Beckhams' close friends, Dolce and Gabbana.

Everything must go: David and Victoria have donated boxes of designer clothing to the Red Cross - including Victoria's dress worn during their visit to the Venice Film Festival in September 2006

Up for grabs: The Beckhams used to be well known for their love of matching outfits. David Beckham admitted last year: 'I look back on some stuff and think I can't believe I actually wore that'

Victoria, who now runs a successful fashion line of her own, spent the weekend sifting through clothing and said: 'Typhoon Haiyan has devastated the Philippines, killing thousands and leaving hundreds of thousands homeless.

'The British Red Cross is now carrying out an enormous humanitarian relief project to help all those people in desperate need. 

'David and I are supporting the Red Cross Shop Drop for the Philippines campaign and we urge everyone in Britain to do the same.  Everyone has something in their closet they were holding onto, a dress, suit, or pair of shoes they thought they might wear again, dig them out, bag them up, drop them off and give someone else the chance to buy them, raising much needed funds for the Red Cross aid effort. Thank you.'

Dozens of pieces from the couple’s wardrobe will go on sale on Friday at the British Red Cross shop in Kensington and Chelsea in London, which specialises in designer clothing, with the money raised going to help those affected by the typhoon in the Philippines.

The collection includes the dress Victoria, 39, wore when she arrived at the Venice Film Festival in September 2006 with David to publicise their fragrance, alongside dresses, tops, suits and shoes from labels including Dolce & Gabbana, Jimmy Choo, and Roberto Cavalli.

Now: David and Victoria Beckham now prefer a rather more sleek look when they make public appearances. The couple are seen together in London in September

Although both Beckhams now prefer a rather more sleek look, David, 38, last year stood by their fashion choices - despite admitting that sometimes he looked back at pictures and thought: 'What were we thinking?'

Once proudly showing off a matching biker-inspired look in Versace leather, Becks said they joked about the red carpet faux-pas, telling H&M magazine: 'Me and Victoria wore matching black leather outfits once.

'They were Versace. But that's one when I look back and am like 'What were we thinking?' 'We laugh about that one. I remember that it's really good until you do it as a couple.'

David, who has been linked with a knighthood in the Queen's New Year's Honours list, also admits previous outfits he and his wife have showcased over the years were over-the-top - but very much of the time.

He said: ' I look back on some stuff and think I can't believe I actually wore that.

'I have no regrets, though - I knew at the time it was good.'

British Red Cross Director of Fundraising, Mark Astarita, said: 'We are delighted to have Victoria and David’s support for the British Red Cross ‘Shop Drop for Philippines’.

'Their generous donation will enable us to raise significant funds towards the enormous humanitarian operation currently underway: providing survivors of Typhoon Haiyan with urgent shelter, medical equipment, food and clean water.

'We know people desperately want to help, but many just don’t have the money to give. ‘Shop Drop for the Philippines’ offers everyone an opportunity to make a difference, either by donating items or by shopping in one of our 330 shops across the UK.'

Typhoon Haiyan struck the Philippines on Friday November 8. More than 13 million people have been affected and more than four million people have been displaced with many living in evacuation centres or makeshift shelters.

Anyone who wants to help can drop off their goods at their nearest Red Cross shop. Their donations will then be specially labelled for shoppers to buy in store to help raise vital funds for those affected by Typhoon Haiyan.

Victoria and David Beckham’s donations will go on sale at the Kensington & Chelsea Red Cross shop, 69-71 Old Church St, London SW3 5BS on Friday  with extended opening hours from 11am to 8pm.
